Pediatric nurse Esther Sartin has been in love with Drake Lewis for as long as she can remember. He’s always been out of her reach, until now. But there’s a problem. Is the rough around the edges single dad the same man she's loved since junior high, or is she pining away for a distant memory that no longer exists? Widower Drake Lewis is not looking to love again. Far from it... He’s too busy and too tired raising his kids and making ends meet to squeeze one more thing into his life, especially romance. A blind date, complete with three kids and an old hound dog, leads to a relationship that makes both Drake and Esther wonder about their future. As Drake’s weary heart opens up to love once more, can he show Esther the man he truly is before it’s too late? Or will his gruff demeanor and cool attitude cause Esther to finally get over him for good?

KC Hart, author of Christian Contemporary Small Town Romance with a southern twist and Christian Cozy mysteries, has been married to Mr. Wonderful for thirty-nine years. She has three daughters, three grandsons, and one beautiful granddaughter. KC sincerely believes that well-written Christian fiction can change lives. When a novel has strong Christian principals woven intricately into a well-written plot, the reader bonds with lifelike characters who struggle with trials, temptations, and struggles that the reader identifies with. The reader identifies with these characters because she’s been there. Everyone has fallen. That’s why everyone needs a Savior. Then, when these same characters turn to Christ the Savior to bring them through these dark moments, the reader finds hope. KC believes the story reminds the reader why she must lean on the Lord in her trying situations. Through the book’s structure showing Christianity as the positive light for good that KC knows to be true, the reader also sees why she needs to be the hands and feet of Christ to others. KC strives to show how the Lord uses situations, people, and His Word to bring the lost to Him, and mold, prune and grow His children. She tackles challenging situations, powerful emotions, and spiritual warfare through engaging stories and true-to-life characters. All of KC's books are free of sex, gore and foul language. Her books are full of small town charm and share the light of Christ in a way that is natural to the story.
